catapult other than the one which "belongs to" the parking spot doesn't work

If the player taxies to a catapult which is not the one that he's parking spot is designated for, the catapult crew doesn't react, no marshaling, no indication anymore.

It used to work and it wouldn't matter if we had proper taxi guidance.

ie. spawning on Elevator 3(front), the designated catapult would be CAT1. Taxiing to CAT3 will not trigger the deck crew into action.

You can try request to take off (\ - F8 - F7). If that doesnt work, sometimes if there is someone on CAT 4 or CAT 2 that will prevent the crew from doing anything. If you are alone on the carrier, I would not have an answer of why they wont respond to your actions. 🙂

Tried it, taxied from EL3 to CAT4. Requested launch, nothing happens... I'm not alone but every other aircraft are inactive yet. Taxiing to CAT2 (while the assignment would be CAT1) works. So only CAT3/4 doesn't work. No arrivals, the people are out there they just don't react.

There are many threads now regarding the supercarrier crew refusing refusing to acknowledge airplanes; AI and player aircraft.  There seem to be multiple conditions that cause it, but you'd think there's got to be one root cause.  Would be nice if they could come up with a manual menu command that forces the crew of a particular cat to activate, until the real cause can be found and fixed.

Do you use mostly singleplayer?  Issues seem more frequent in MP to me, but that's not scientific. 

For me this happens alot in Multiplayer or using the Liberation Campaign (lots of aircraft). Single player never had an issue
